The purpose of this work was to estimate neonatal bECF and saliva levels to establish the neonatal R,S-methadone salivary thresholds for respiratory depression after maternal oral dosing despite the sparse data in pregnancy and newborn populations.

After maternal oral dosing of R,S-methadone (43.8 mg/day), the neonatal plasma levels were below the respiratory depression threshold. Further, the bECF levels were above the analgesia threshold for more than 96 h. The salivary thresholds for the analgesic effects of R-methadone, S-methadone, and R,S-methadone were estimated herein at 1.7, 43, and 16 ng/mL, respectively.

Identifying chemicals that can be considered as similar (analogues) is crucial to the process. Two resources have been developed previously to address the issue of analogue selection and facilitate physiologically-based kinetic (PBK) model development, using read-across. Chemical-specific PBK models, available in the literature, were collated to form a PBK model dataset (PMD) of over 7,500 models. A KNIME workflow was created to accompany this PMD that can aid the selection of appropriate chemical analogues from chemicals within this dataset (i.e. chemicals that are similar to a target of interest and are known to have an existing PBK model). Information from the PBK model for the source chemical can then be used in a read-across approach to inform the development of a new PBK model for the target. The application of these resources is tested here using two case studies (i) for the drug atenolol and (ii) for the plant protection product, flumioxazin. New PBK models were constructed for these two target chemicals using data obtained from source chemicals, identified by the workflow as being similar (analogues). In each case, the published PBK model for the source chemical was initially reproduced, as accurately as possible, before being adapted and used as a template for the target chemical. The performance of the new PBK models was assessed by comparing simulation outputs to existing data on key kinetic properties for the targets. The results demonstrate that a read-across approach can be successfully applied to develop new PBK models for data-poor chemicals, thus enabling their deployment during early-stage risk assessment.

ToxPi was originally developed for assessing the relative toxicity of multiple chemicals or stressors by synthesizing complex toxicological data to provide a single comprehensive view of the potential health effects. It continues to be used for profiling chemicals and has since been applied to other types of “sample” entities, including geospatial (e.g. county-level Covid-19 risk and sites of historical PFAS exposure) and other profiling applications. For any set of features (data collected on a set of sample entities), ToxPi integrates the data into a set of weighted slices that provide a visual profile and a score metric for comparison. This scoring system is highly dependent on user-provided feature weights, yet users often lack knowledge of how to define these feature weights. Common methods for predicting feature weights are generally unusable due to inappropriate statistical assumptions and lack of global distributional expectation. However, users often have an inherent understanding of expected results for a small subset of samples. For example, in chemical toxicity, prior knowledge can often place subsets of chemicals into categories of low, moderate or high toxicity (reference chemicals). Ordinal regression can be used to predict weights based on these response levels that are applicable to the entire feature set, analogous to using positive and negative controls to contextualize an empirical distribution. We propose a semi-supervised method utilizing ordinal regression to predict a set of feature weights that produces the best fit for the known response (“reference”) data and subsequently fine-tunes the weights via a customized genetic algorithm. We conduct a simulation study to show when this method can improve the results of ordinal regression, allowing for accurate feature weight prediction and sample ranking in scenarios with minimal response data. To ground-truth the guided weight optimization, we test this method on published data to build a ToxPi model for comparison against expert-knowledge-driven weight assignments.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37651,"journal":{"name":"Computational Toxicology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138625224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model describes the concentration–time profile of each congener in milk and blood of high-yielding dairy cows. It was parametrized using an in-house transfer study with 3 cows exposed to a defined synthetic congener mixture for two dosing periods, as well as 3 control cows to account for background exposure. The first dosing was administered during negative energy balance (NEB) after calving, and the second during positive energy balance (PEB) in late lactation. Results include extrapolated steady-state transfer rates and elimination half-lives, many of which have never been reported before. Transfer rates (<em>TR</em>s) were significantly higher during the NEB by a median of 27%, likely due to an increase in non-milk elimination during PEB. The difference draws attention to the influence of the metabolic state of food-producing animals in risk assessment. Comparison of the <em>TR</em>s derived here with those reported in the literature showed that they were, in median, 43% higher in the NEB phase and 16% higher in the PEB phase probably because we report <em>TR</em>s in steady-state unlike most literature sources.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37651,"journal":{"name":"Computational Toxicology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2468111323000312/pdfft?md5=cf199e8430917ae3b8bcae74416bfd03&pid=1-s2.0-S2468111323000312-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135763702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
